Sport & Leisure Charities & Community Groups 29th August 2018 Return to News

The BBC are calling for nominations for the most fresh, dynamic and dedicated volunteers for their Unsung Hero award.

The award is part of the BBC's Get Inspired programme, which aims to help get people involved and active across the country.

The Unsung Hero award recognises that so much of grassroots sports and fitness activities are organised by armies of volunteers.

EduCare for Sport: Volunteers

We have created a package of training courses specifically for volunteers in the sport sector which is designed to give access to high-quality content, ensuring that all volunteers know how to help keep children and young people safe.

The service contains six courses and starts at just £40 per learner.
